OK, Mr. Smartypants, here is a question put to me once in college ---


If a tree falls on a bear poo - ping in the woods while a '93 Camaro traveling the speed of light drives by at midnight, will the tapedeck still have decent resale value?

Makes ya think, don't it?:D

If a tree falls in the woods and lands on a mime, does HE make a sound?
Treize (pronounced 'trays')- because 'Treisprezece' is too long and even harder to pronounce.
